Advantages: They will look after you if something goes wrong Disadvantages: They have improved a lot in the last one year.
I am very pleased with scan, on a previous order,
there was a mistake in stock availability, so I had cancelled the order.
Now, much later on, I have decided to purchase the Nvidia Graphics card.
They have brought forward the free delivery they offered,
and the product is actually delivered next day itself.
All in all, this was a brilliant service after a problem in a past order. 5/5 for excellence.
I dont mind giving them 6/6 if there is a ... ...orders ontime or closer to it. But, you will differentiate a good company how they responds when some thing goes wrong.
